Basically you will need a means of powering the fridge while in transit. A six hour transit should be short enough that the contents remains cold with the door shut. However you have a couple of options as well all are a matter of how much you want to spend.

Install sufficient battery capacity and recharge then at your destination as alternator will most likely not keep up with draw.

Reduce draw by converting fridge to sc compressor running directly from batteries with ample capacity. This arrangement draws considerably less power.

Add an energy source like solar that can adequately recharge your batteries accounting for the draw of the fridge. Some folks also use their onboard gensets for this as well as running AC units so upon arrival coach is cooled down and fridge stays cold.
